(AP)-Pennsylvania and Chicago, ranked among the champions of east and a year ago, waged fierce struggle in the rain and mud of Franklin Field this afternoon and the Quakere won, 7 to 0. It was the first encounter between these intersectional rivals in twentyfour years. Close to 60,000 drenched but enthusiastic onlookers Pennsylvania's greater resourcefulness account for the victorious margin in a contest which was chiefly a deadlock between two powerful and courageous defensive outfits.

Where land and naval threats failed in the sea of mud into which the field was turned the Quakers took to the air and scored their decisive touchdown on a spectacular forward pass, hurled by Charley to the goal. Al Kreuz kicked the extra in Quaker hands around Chicago's 40-yard ing two would-be tacklers easily on his way line. who yards hurled period Rogers thrusts This Stepping to grabbed to the had after winning cross it ball back George fallen on two the play fully the close Thayer, short final came 25 run to previous and and yards right early chalk-mark, midfield, with sped to in end. 20 the the Pennsylvania Thayer, Rogers dodg- more first ball a point with a placement shot, and Pennsylvania had the margin which she held intact for the remainder of the game. From that point on to the final whistle It was a bitter struggle, with Chicago fighting to overcome or at least tie her rivals' lead while the Quakers put up equally as sturdy a battle to maintain their advantage.

Back and forth in the quagmire the two teams struggled with advantages shifting with Ilghtning rapidity as a fumble, intercepted pass or other "break" turned the tide, but each eleven found a stone wall defense when in he shadow of their oppoDents' goal posts. Four times Chicago's attack, led by the famous "Five McCarthy, was stopped inside Pennsylvania's 20-yard line, while on three other occasions the westerners checked their foes when it seemed the Quakers would break through and add to their score. Rallying Pennsylvania's touchdown. Chicago launched a. counter-drive toward the close of the first period that put the ball on Pennsylvania's 19-yard line after Hobscheid, Maroon tackle, had recovered fumble by Kreuz, but here the Quakers held firm and recovered the ball on Again, in the second period, Chicago penetrated to Pennsylvania's 13-yard mark, aided by a 25-yard forward pass from McCarthy to Drain, but once more Pennsylvania held for downs.

The third and most promising Chicago opportunity came in the third quarter when Timme recovered a fumble by Quarterback Leith on Pennsylvania's 21-yard line. Drain and Timme advanced the ball to the Quaker 11-yard mark, but Pennsylvania's defense yielded only a yard in the next four plays and the ball was lost downs. That was the westerners' last chance and it took all their defensive a brilliance to keep their rivals from scoring again in the last two periods. In the third, two cessive fumbles of Kreuz's punts by Chicago backs gave Pennsylvania the ball on the Marroon's 15-yard line. Douglass led a succession of charges that netted seven yards, but Chicago then held firm and Kreuz dropped back to try a placement kick only to have it go wild from the 20-yard line.

This was the third and last of Kreuz's tries for field goals. He hit the uprights in the first period on his first attempt, a drop-kick from the 25-yard line, while in the second period Iris placement kick from the 45-yard mark was short. Chicago's last stand in the fourth period was made on her own 17-yard line, where the ball was regained on downs after Kreuz had intercepted a forward pass, with Douglass battered his way about thirty yards. Kreuz, chiefly responsible for Pennsylvania triumphs over Brown and Yale in the past few weeks, again was the weapon of the Quaker attack, although his kicking, due to the slippery condition of the ball, was not as effective as usual. Pennsylvania's superiority on the attack was evidenced by the fact that the Quakers scored eleven first downs as compared with seven for Chicago, and gained altogether about twice as much ground.

The westerners also were less successful at forward passing, completing only three out of twelve heaves for a total of 50 yards. while Pennsylvania completed two out of six for a total of 48 yards.

Before a small crowd of about a al hundred loyal rooters the Allentown High School team splashed through the Lansford team for a 18 to 0 win. The game was Allentown's from the beginning until the end. The Lansford team, greatly outweighed by Allentown, played a very rugged game.

Though pep wag lacking, their team and it in no way compared with the team that last year defeated Allentown 17-0. Allentown showed up well in the downpour and Coach Crum used most of his subs in the game. Witwer and Gehringer showed lots of stuff in the backfield, while Wackernagle and Knauss stood out on the line. T. Pallock, captain of the Lansford team, was the outstanding player for the visitors.

The game was full of fumbles and most breaks were with Allentown. Lansford kicked to Allentown. About five minutes later Greenberg picked up a blocked kick and scored Allentown's first touchdown. Gehringer missed the goal. In the second quarter Gehringer slipped through the Langford line and ran twentyfive yards for a touchdown.

He missed the goal for the extra point. In the second half Allentown tried several forwards but the only ones used to any profit were those of the Palladino-Wackernagle combination. One of these gave the Canary and Blue its last score, Wackernagle running twenty yards for a touchdown. Gehringer missed the goal. Lunsford opened an aerial attack in the last quarter but too late to be of benefit.

Muhlenberg Fights Hard in Pinches and Prevents Aggressive Opponents From Scoring- -Slemmer's Attempt for Field Goal Fails Team Shows Better -Good Crowd at Game. Muhlenberg yesterday afternoon was successful in defending its goal line against the vicious onslaughts of the much-touted Dickinson team. Cardinal and Grey was not vicThe torious. It was not defeated.

For four periods the teams skidded, wallowed and paddled through a bog which has become stereotyped as "the proverbial sea of mud." And at the conclusion of hostilities, naval, land and air, the score board registered a zero-zero contest. It was a tough battle played under most trying Twice Bobby Books tried kicks for the Carlisle team. Once Winnie Slemmer, Muhlenberg's toe ace, tried for a field goal. A slippery cow-hide oval ricocheted from their boots, and the scoreboard still read zero. Muhlenberg showed more pep yesterday than it has since the Lafayette game.

Time after time Coach Lightener's big Black team tore wide gaps into the first line of defense, and repeatedly the shocks of the assault permitted Carpenter, the flashy full- of the visitors, to dash through the openings which resulted from these thrusts. Muhlenberg played a good defensive game, despite the fact that Dickinson registered seven first downs. It was on the offense that Muhlenberg lacked punch, as is attested by the meagre three first downs accredited to the Cardinal and Grey. When the teams failed to register paddling through the pools of water, the play was worked to the more solid portions of the turf. These land engagements also were a seesaw affair, the aerial was resorted to.

Aerially, Muhlenberg had the better conflict, completing three successfully as against one for the visitors. Despite the unusual weather the football faithful turned out for the game, and from appearances there were as many fans present as witnessed the contest on the preceding Saturday. The folks who were among those present got soaked, but they saw a grid spectacle the type which lingers long in the memory of the rabid fan. The first couple of plays saw the Cardinal and Grey, as well as the Black uniforms change hue and players looked like SO many claymen. 'elected Russ Clark won the toss, and to take the defensive by sending Borrelli to the kick-off tee.

Bobby Books took the kick-off and brought it back to the Dickinson thirty-yard line. After several plays the Carlisle men failed to gain and Books to Muhlenber's thirty-yard line.ed Borrelli was given the task of carrying the ball during Muhlenberg's first offensive and the Muhlenberg ace was held. Punts were exchanged, and then Muhlenberg worked from mid-field, with the aid of a successful forward to the twenty-yard line. Winnie Slemmer fell back five yards and tried for a field goal. The uncertain ground and the condition of the ball made this a difficult task, and even with these handicaps he missed objective only by inches.

Muhlenberg in the second period was penalized, several times for offside with the ball on Muhlenberg's thirty-yard line, Books tried a placement kick for a field goal. missed. Muhlenberg got a first down and then resorted to the punt get the ball out of danger. WADED TO A DRAW Roth. Dickinson Muhlenberg L.E.

In the third period, Dickinson made its greatest gains.
